I'm Brant Phillips and welcome to the OWN IT, DON'T RENT Podcast. I'm the co-founder and CEO of Colten Mortgage and my belief is that our successes and failures fall on our shoulder. When the 2008 mortgage crisis hit home, I realized we can not be passive players in our own life and we must take action to control our own destiny. Now to be able to reflect back, I'm proud of what we've accomplished at Colten Mortgage and on this show I'm bringing you the tools and advice that have helped me during my career.
